MotoTees is once again offering the opportunity to put your last name on your official Loretta Lynn's racing bib! All bibs are fully sublimated and will include your last name above your race number. No press on numbers or letters! Purchase extra bibs to frame after the event or have on-hand during race week. These customized bibs are in addition to the race bib provided by MX Sports.

Due to health concerns we will be following social distancing protocols race week. That means keep a safe 6-foot distance from others and when you can’t, wear a facemask. Bring a weeklong supply of facemasks for your entire family and pit crew and be prepared to wear them when necessary. Instruct your children on proper usage of facemasks and the importance of washing their hands often and not touching their face. Have hand sanitizer and antibacterial soap readily available and use it often. Make sure everyone reviews and follows the 2020 Safe-to-Race Health Plan.

Although pre-entered, all riders must confirm their entries at the event during Registration. Due to health concerns, only adult riders and the parents of minor riders are required to attend Registration.
